Abstract: An apparatus for a thermal actuator for a micromechanical device,
especially a liquid drop emitter such as an ink jet printhead, is disclosed. The
disclosed thermal actuator (15) comprises a base element (10) and a cantilevered
element (20) extending from the base element a length L and normally residing at
a first position before activation. The cantilevered element includes a layer (22)
constructed of an electrically resistive material, such as titanium aluminide,
patterned to have a uniform resistor portion (25) extending a length L H  from the
base element, wherein 0.3L ≤ L H  ≤ 0.7L. The cantilevered element includes a
second layer (23) constructed of a dielectric material having a low coefficient of
thermal expansion attached to the first layer (22). A pair of electrodes (42, 44)
connected to the uniform resistor portion to apply an electrical pulse to cause
resistive heating, resulting in a thermal expansion of the uniform resistor portion
of the first layer relative to the second layer and deflection of the cantilevered
element to a second position, followed by restoration of the cantilevered element
to the first position as heat transfers from the uniform resistor portion and the
temperature decreases. The first layer preferably extends for substantially the full
length of the cantilevered element and the uniform resistor portion is preferably
formed by removing a central slot of this material from a partial length of the
cantilevered element. Forming the uniform resistor portion to have a length L H ,
where 0.3L < L H  < 0.7L, results in reduced energy requirements for operation
while not causing excessive increases in operating temperatures.

Filed: 2003-02-06
Abstract: The invention relates to a flow cell, a method for separating carrier-free radionuclides from a liquid or liquefiable target material, and the radiochemical reaction thereof. According to prior art, flow cells are known which require reaction volumes corresponding to the volume of the target material in order to carry out the desired reactions. The inventive flow cell ( 1 ) and method enable the reaction volume, and thus the quantity of starting material, to be reduced by a multiple by reducing the cylinder volume (=reaction volume). As the radioactively marked product is present in very small quantities (picomole to nanomole), the HPL-chromatographic separation of the non-reacted starting material is significantly improved. The economic efficiency of the method is increased due to the fact that small quantities of starting material can be used.
